FAC Legacy Series: Frank Mechau Description:
March 5 - May 15, 2016

This exhibition is the third major offering in the FAC Legacy Series, which began with original exhibitions dedicated to the art of Birger Sandzen and Charles Bunnell. Like Sandzen and Bunnell, Colorado artist Frank Mechau (1903-1946) was among the greatest of the artists associated with the Colorado Springs Fine Arts Center's first decades. Mechau taught for the FAC School in 1937-38; on the heels of the Broadmoor Art Academy's height and under the continued influence of the BAA's Boardman Robinson, Mechau maintained the Academy's traditional teachings by making the Fine Arts Center a Western focal point for Works Progress Administration mural projects.
